[摘要]:A biosynthetic medicinal chem. approach was applied to the optimization of the natural product Hsp90 inhibitor macbecin. By genetic engineering, mutants have been created to produce novel macbecin analogs including a nonquinone compd. that has significantly and reduced toxicity (MTD ?250 mg/kg).
